That still gives no argument for selecting a 3rd rounder going ot the Super Bowl.

Yes Montana and Brady are on different calabers of player. They have that leadership and get it done style of play that is hard to scout. BUt lets be honest here and look at the most recent Super Bowl QBs and leaders in passing at the QB position ...

Another thing I noticed on the NFL Network show on the Titans last night was that if the Defense was allowed to touch vy he would have been sacked on about half his throws.

I also liked this quote about the Titans.

I've gone to three training camps so far and have eight left to visit. But I can already say with confidence that the nastiest camp of all is going to be the Tennessee Titans.

While I was in Tennessee Sunday and Monday, bodies crashed, tempers flared and expletives flew. Even in shorts, helmets and shoulder pads ("shells" to you football-talkin' folk) the Titans camp is just this side of mayhem.

They might not know how to play football, but it looks like it's because they don't know what they are doing in camp.

I like how you sidestep the fact that this comment was meant as a good thing.

I'll lay odds that Shammy will run for more yards than VY this year,your problem is that all of those yards will be behind the line of scrimmage. He will be the face for Kroger.

Good effort, but isn't the overall conclusion the same it is for the draft generally--you can make it and will have to make it at times with players from all over the draft but if you examine one position, you are overall going to get better results from higher draft picks?

Young has three oddities going for him--(1) USFL, (2) being traded/not being with the drafting team and (3) sitting behind a hall of fame QB for four years under the tutelage of a hall of fame coach to inherit a Super Bowl team. What would Young have been like without #3?

I had Williams as a first when I was counting but left him off the list at the end.

Personally, I had no interest in the argument about QB's and draft position. I just found the information itself interesting.

Players are selected in the first round because someone thinks that they're talented AND that they'll fill a need. Usually those people are right but sometimes they're wrong. Sometimes a guy drops for reasons out of his control that have nothing to do with how he plays. Sometimes a guy just needs to be in the right place at the right time. As long as a guy can play, I really don't care where he's drafted but I'm not going to hold it against a guy if he's drafted in the first round, either.

Honestly, I haven't read back thru the whole thread for whatever silly draft generalization argument may have been going on--seem to have been several lately. Thought your post was interesting but there were a couple nits to pick. Agree with your last post--bottom line, does the guy play football.

Thanks, even better. The fact is, it doesn't matter where you are drafted if you have a good team around the QB and the QB does not lose the game for you. You do not have to invest a high draft pick in a QB to go to the SB.

Teamwork and leadership can go a long way.
